Get a wash, get a job and get a life.
Not really, the T&Cs specifically prohibit blatant spamming.
Besides which, I mean. Che Lives. Christ.
They could get him booked as an extra in a George Romero remake.
It should do, but you're not missing much.
Nah, it just hasnt had a chance to go through the proper way it should do yet. All countries (e.g. Russia, China) went straight from Agricultural Societies to Marxist more or less. According to Marx a capitalist phase is needed for Marxism to come about.
Well...i think thats it anyway.
We became smarter so Democracy and The Republic could work and we could better ourselves.
A "pure" Marxist society could be a paradise. Look at the Federation on Star Trek.
Even Burberry cappies?
I'll get my coat........................
I don't see how Marxism can be out dated either... I mean that's like saying some of the greatest works of literature will be out dated, but to some people they're still valued deeply.
But as Braineater says, people are too greedy and at least in the west it won't come about unless the capitalist economy collapses. Maybe I should annoy people by posting up a link on primitivism for the hell of it.
Neo-marxists REJECT the notion that capitalist societies are polarised as Marx stated!!!! That's why Marx's views are outdated!!!
Besides, thisis a superior political ideology!!!
I can't say any political standing is superior as it's all down to individual taste.
Interesting site by the way, sounds to me like a softer version of anarchy or something (sociology student, not a politics one).
However, where it mentions equality, does this mean that a libertarian society could be dominated by say... a racist or mysoginist ideology?
Read Fukuyama and his theories of the "end of history" because of the demise of ideology.
I've studied that actually, he argues that "The West Has Won" doesn't he? However, i still beleive that there can still be different ideologies in a western society, and that it doesnt *have* to be the only ideology. Not that im a raving marxist or anything though.
So a 'racist ideology' cannot be supported.
They simply mean that government should NOT be used as a means to secure more economic or social equality!! Humans are ALL equal anyhow!!!
That was a JOKE dammit!!!!
OIIIIIIII!!!!!!!!! STOP SHOUTING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You are breaking the rules. Read them here and here. Please.
and stop using so many smilies or i'll stop you using them altogether.
I don't, but I think he had a point. Most critiques and theories do, in fact.
You can never have a completly equal society of humans, it just wont work.
What is human nature then?
He had a point, but (as far as I understand it), its been said before anyway, death of the meta-narrative, post-modernism etc.
It looked for a while like capitalism won the battle of ideaologies, but if thats the case, how do you explain the world wide anti-capitalist movement?
Animal nature expanded with our larger intelligence.
:rolleyes:
Thats no answer and you know it. Not least because it then begs the question - what is animal nature?
getting a bit fucking Zen innit?
